This is a long post, so feel free to skip it. Really, I was just writing for my own sake after getting angry.

Yesterday my nieces went shopping (against their will) with my mother. Apparently she told them that they're becoming too much like me. I usually let that kind of thing slide, but it bothered me this time. So, I ended up writing about...

What is it about reading a book, that makes every person in this house decide that now is the moment that they want to talk to me? I got a copy of My Best Friend's Exorcism yesterday, it seemed interesting. Anyway, I pick up my book to start reading, and somebody pops up wanting to talk. I put the book down, they disappear. I try...

@WOLFWOOD1203 There's a game that helps fight rejection. The essence is to receive refusals every day for 30 days (at least 1 refusal), but ask for something insignificant and not quite feasible for one reason or another. For example, when you go to the coffee pot ask: can you make coffee yourself? When you go in for a doughnut, ask if you can bake them so that you get the symbol of the Olympics - five rings stuck together. Simple requests that are fair to refuse, most often you will be refused, but you can see how people give these refusals and at a minimum level of difficulty you will learn how to receive these refusals.

@headshot Interesting idea, it does sound like a good way to get used to rejection.

This should be interesting. I decided last night that I didn't want to take my antidepressants anymore. I feel like with how things have been going since the original need for them arose, I'm ready to try moving forward without them. I still have some (but I'm running out) that I can take if it doesn't go well. I feel like making the choice to...

@headshot That's actually interesting to know. But I don't think I'd be able to do it successfully, I'm too clumsy. Besides, it's a low enough dose that I don't think I need to mess with it. Thanks for the advice though.

I don't think I'm going to get out of bed today. I've been feeling off for the last couple of days. Now it's 7 in the morning, I still haven't slept because I was trying to fight off a meltdown, or depression, or something. I'm still mad at people here. I'm going to sleep, and not put pants on, and hide here the rest of...

Long story short, my mother was trying to guilt me into something I didn't want to do, telling me how 'disappointed and upset' she was with me. I finally told her that I'm allowed to have boundaries too, that my feelings are just as valid as hers, and that I'm tried of pretending they aren't. Not the glorious telling someone off I always imagined, but...

This is so strange to me. I feel like I've been making good progress on my mental health. Maybe I'm just expecting too much, too fast? I've come to realize something important recently. I don't think I'm as depressed as I used to be. It's still there, boy is it ever still there... But it's not the same desperate feeling. I don't think that suicide...

@cerebus666 it was already resolved before you said anything. Lol.

So, I was a huge Dragon Ball fan growing up. I had so many Dragon Ball Z t-shirts that people I didn't know, noticed. I watched the original series, I watched Z, I pretend that GT never existed...

But when Super came out, I just didn't feel like watching. I don't know, maybe after watching a few episodes of GT, I just didn't have faith....

@fredhincanada Yeah, I don't think I have it on me to binge another 100 episodes. Maybe a few at a time...

So, I'm a little caught off guard here. Context first? Background info? My mother is absolutely psychotic. She really lives in her own world, in the worst possible ways. She tends to think that she has done a lot of things that she hasn't.

Now, she likes to talk shit about my ex-sister-in-law. She always has, even before my brother divorced her. For all of...

Anyone remember these art prints SG sold some years back? I don't really remember how long ago it was that I picked it up, but she's been hanging in my room for years now. It's a shame she's not on the site anymore, she was one of my favorites. Just looked up and noticed it again, felt like sharing it with you all. I think...

So, today my niece told me that she told her dad that he needs to start paying me, because I cook and clean and am 'basically a housewife'. 😂

It's nice that she thinks I need to be paid for what I do. But to me, what I do is payment for letting me live here. You know?

Anyway, how are you doing? Hope you...
